Can drive small car, mostly tarred roads

I think a small car should be fine. The road conditions should be no problem.

The probability of snow in late September is high. It is safer to drive a 4WD if it snows. A small car is enough if there is no snow.

Preparing to go on a Road trip from Vancouver to Victoria by ship at the end of September (with a car). I registered on the official website of the ship, but when I tried to book the round trip, the website kept spinning and couldn't enter the next step (selecting the date and location), so I couldn't complete the booking. I wonder where the problem is. Can you tell me how you usually book tickets in advance? What should I pay attention to? Thank you ? Canada Q&A

Can anyone please advise us on a Road trip from Calgary to Vancouver at the end of October? We will mainly visit Banff and Jasper, and the total trip duration will be 5 days. First, we would like to know if the scenery of the two national parks is similar and both are necessary to visit. Second, we are concerned about the driving safety in snowy weather based on the current weather forecast in the area. Although we have a long driving history, we have never driven on icy roads. We would appreciate any advice. Thank you ? Canada Q&A

Can someone rent a Hertz car in Vancouver and return it in Edmonton? I selected a Hertz car (rented in Vancouver and returned in Edmonton, with an additional fee for returning the car to a different location), but the fee notes say "the airport construction fee and taxes for returning the car to a different location are not included, and the exact amount needs to be known when picking up the car at the store." Has anyone paid this fee? About how many Canadian dollars is it? Please help me solve this ? Canada Q&A

In fact, it's almost the same as in China. If you are a good driver in China, you will have no problem in Canada! When you rent a car, the website will tell you about the traffic rules and insurance in Canada. The service is very good. There is no toll on Canadian highways. The drivers there drive very strictly. When our domestic traffic is also like this, it will be a real strong country. Gasoline is cheaper than in China, about 5.6 RMB per liter, and there are differences in different places. Remember to fill up the gas (87 octane) if you have the chance ? Canada Q&A
